Membersorry to sound like a street pharmachist but, yeah, those sound like Vicoprofens which are probablly pretty weak (under 10 mg of hydrocodone each probablly).

MemberI tore my right rotator cuff in a wrestling match with a drunk.
It wasn’t me was it??
Hey Steve, haven’t seen your name in a while.

MemberI’ve never replaced my Apex Anvil vise, never had a reason too. Great for what I tie (mostly large baitfish flies). $100 msrp, comes with a base and a clamp, lifetime warranty………. I’d just get that and be done with it. Never found a hook to big or small for it to grab hold of and when its all tightened down nothing budges. Been using mine for several years now, not a single issue.
I’ve spent thousands of dollars on fly tying buts its going to take a lot to make me buy a new vice, and ‘they’ have tried to sell me everything under the sun. I’ve tied on almost every one of the major-player’s vices, nice stuff all around, but just not that much better for what I’m doing. Maybe if I was doing small, complex trout flies………. It will definitly get you started, if not more.
I’m pretty sure it was Zach who recomended it to me back in the day.

MemberYou know the strange thing is I’ve tried the stinger hooks on those types of patterns thinking it would be perfect…….
Carter Simcoe
Memberlooks similar to a lot of stuff I do.

MemberHmm.
Carter Simcoe
Memberha ha.
Carter Simcoe
MemberWell there should be a thick vail of sarcasm cast over most everything I say.
I dunno, maybe i’m off but I thought they were always talking about this AL reel like it had the best drag since RuPaul, then giving you some fine print about scrubing it down with a toothbrush after every use…….
Carter Simcoe
MemberNice to see someone else who can admit that reel is a rusty piece of crap Mike.
Carter Simcoe
MemberThis is one of those things that is best to learn by actually watching it done correctly.
Carter Simcoe
Memberha ha, the ironic thing is that might be able to pass for me from far off.
Carter Simcoe
MemberI like what you are doing with some of your flies there too Mike.
Carter Simcoe
MemberDamn those are some big stripers.
Carter Simcoe
Memberoh yeah, I can handle that, I just wasn’t sure if I should hotlink from cnn or not.
Carter Simcoe
MemberYeah, good point, greg.
Carter Simcoe
Memberthat Ross Canyon BG drag is great, I’ve come across people that adamatly hate it though, mostly die-dard cork guys.
Carter Simcoe
MemberOh, its far from the world’s best drag, I’d never buy one for anything larger than a 6 wt rig.
